To determine the correct answers for these questions, let's break down each one and find the relevant information:
1: Asha's nation has a legislature and a prime minister. Citizens vote in elections to elect their legislative representatives, and then parliament appoints the prime minister. Based on this information, we can determine the correct answer.
- limited, because not everyone serves in parliament: This answer is incorrect because not everyone serving in parliament does not indicate whether the government is limited or unlimited.
- limited, because citizens have a say over who serves in government: This answer is correct. Citizens in Asha's nation have the ability to vote for their legislative representatives, which indicates that they have a say over who serves in the government. Therefore, the government is limited.
- unlimited, because citizens do not pick the prime minister: This answer is incorrect. While citizens may not directly vote for the prime minister, their ability to elect legislative representatives still gives them a say in the government.
- unlimited, because everyone has the right to vote: This answer is incorrect. The right to vote does not necessarily determine whether a government is limited or unlimited.
